Thank you for the video link. Good info, and I have to give you credit for being a lot calmer about the situation than I would be. I am sorry you lost your drone. And frankly I doubt you will get it back...

See attached link to the current ordinance, passed in September of 2015. Looks like we agree that it is currently illegal to:

- Fly within the perimeter of the NTTR
- Take photos or video of anything inside that perimeter
- Fly within R-4808N, which extends a few miles up GL Rd.

So, as far as Tikaboo and Sand Spring Valleys are concerned the proposed extension would only extend the no-fly zone outward of the border in the northern Groom Range, to the slope away from Groom Lake and in the area around and north of the Backgate. Does that sound right?
